Intro to Machining

We are presenting a machine tool workshop focusing on manual mill and lathe work. The goal of this workshop is to get students able to safely and comfortably perform lathe and mill operations and be able to continue their learning by doing further projects after the workshop has concluded. Machine tool work requires a lot of knowledge including book learning along with practical experience. This workshop will get participants started with a basic understanding of lathe and mill operations and other related skills. We will start with safety, then cover proper operations of the mill and the lathe. Then we will cover indicating and measurments followed by the project. Additionally, any students who want to go on to learn CNC work will benefit by having concepts and knowledge of how to perform manual mill and lathe work.

A maximum of 2 students will be allowed to take this workshop at the same time with students working together.
